To me, God is a word. I accept (or am working) to accept what is. Whatever it is I will accept it. That way I am conforming to what is - not trying to get what is to conform to me.

What God IS cannot be imagined or comprehended. The word "God" is a symbol that represents a cartoon-like abstraction, but the truth is beyond all abstractions. The truth can be directly experienced, but it cannot be understood or grasped by the mind. The infinite can only be perceived by the infinite because it is without boundaries. Selfhood must disappear in order for THAT to be perceived. Anyone who loses himself/herself and encounters THAT will be rendered speechless with awe. Everyone is one-with THAT, whether it is realized or not, because THAT is all there IS. Anything (any thing) that is seen as separate is a product of imagination.
